1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

For decades, implant-based breast augmentation has been one of the most performed surgical procedures for cosmetic purposes around the world. Hence, novel manufactured implants should be critically investigated to prove them safe and effective. Here, the authors describe the first independently conducted clinical study on Nagor Impleo textured round breast implants. For this retrospective study, outcomes of 340 consecutive female patients undergoing primary cosmetic breast augmentation were analyzed. Demographic and surgical data as well as outcomes and complications were evaluated. Furthermore, a survey concerning effectiveness and aesthetic satisfaction after breast augmentation was examined. All 680 implants were placed in a submuscular plane with incisions at the inframammary fold. The main indications for surgery were hypoplasia and hypoplasia with asymmetry. The mean implant volume was 390 cc and the main type of projection was high profile. The most common complications were hematoma and capsular contracture (0.9 percent, respectively). The overall revision rate for complications was 2.4%. Additionally, almost all patients showed increased quality of life and aesthetic satisfaction after a breast augmentation. Hence, all patients would undergo breast augmentation again with these newly launched devices. Nagor Impleo implants demonstrate a low complication rate and high safety profile. Although high aesthetic satisfaction and quality of life results were achieved, analysis of an even larger series over a longer period of time would be beneficial to evaluate the reliability of this implant.
